Scarlett Johansson tries life as a brunette

Well this is quite a change. Scarlett Johansson was spotted on the Glasgow set of her film “Under the Skin” sporting a short, layered brunette bob. The dramatic, edgy look goes with the role— she plays an alien who preys on guys and uses them for their body parts. Seriously. And why does everyone go brunette to play the villain? Just asking.  I have to say, though, for a girl who usually looks so glamorous, I'm not feeling this dark hue.

As recently as last month, Scarlett was ginger for her role in "Avengers 2," and I have to say, she can pull off all shades of red with ease.  But, for some reason, we always think of her as a bombshell blonde, so this change to a dark chestnut is bit of a shock.    Then again, going darker seems to be the hair trend of the moment right now. Kylie Minogue just tried out a dark brown and it made her gorgeous eyes stand out even more. There are even natural blondes like Sofia Vergara who are choosing to stick with more sultry shades for dramatic contrast. Could it be the Kardashian effect?  Who knows if ScarJo will keep this shade once filming is over, but what do you think of Scarlett’s new look? Vote our poll and let us know.
